I've found if you stick it in the gravel that part dies and it floats to the
top. I always attack it to a rock or driftwood with fishing line - mostly
for the fun of trying to tie tiny little knots in very fine transparent

finally admitting my eyes aren't 22 any more, and this helps and gives
my kids an endless supply of ammunition for ribbing their poor father.
